What is Advent ?

Advent is the start of the church year. The word Advent comes from the Latin 'adventus,' which means 'coming' or 'arrival' to signify the birth of Jesus. Advent is a time for celebration; anticipating Christ's birth and looking forward to when Jesus will come again.

During Advent we are called to say extra prayers, be extra kinda to others & called to help others in need.

Advent lasts 4 weeks. Each Sunday of Advent we light a candle from the Advent wreath.
